Mum's packing hack means to you can take 'double the amount' of clothes on holiday
This simple packing hack makes it easier than ever to be able to bring all of your clothes on holiday with you without worrying about running out of space in your suitcase It can be so frustrating when you struggle to pack for a holiday and run out of room in your suitcase. Making sure you pack for the weather, as well as for all occasions and if you're a parent - most likely for a little one too. However this clever trick by a savvy mum means you can pack "double the amount" of clothes on holiday, and it's all thanks to how you fold each item of clothing. The mum, who goes by the name @ mama_mila_ took to TikTok to share her tips. Specialising in styling, organising and cleaning, the mum of two said: "Three folding tricks to save space in your suitcase and prevent wrinkles on your clothes." She also shared another top tip and said: "A little trick I heard from a fight attendant is to always pack a pillowcase in your luggage to put extra clothes if your baggage is overweight. You're allowed to bring a pillow onboard without it being weighed! Hope these folds were helpful." For tops, she folds the sleeves inwards, then folds the top in half and rolls into a small pouch. For trousers, she folds each meg up to 1/4 and then rolls them up as one and for dresses she folds both sides in and rolls 3/4 of the way and then tucks it in together. The TikToker revealed that in order to make the most out of your suitcase size, tops, jeans and dresses should be folded in a specific way and then rolled, allowing more room in the case and claimed you can then pack double the amount. While many travellers adapted the clothes rolling technique, some say there is an alternative method proven to be even more effective. The KonMari folding technique, popularised by Marie Kondo, involves folding your garments into rectangles, rather than rolling them into cylinders, as we often see. This allows the clothes to stand upright next to each other in your suitcase, optimising even more space, reports the Express. Here's what to do: Take your item of clothing and fold one side to the middle, then the other side over it, creating a rectangle Then, fold it in half lengthways From here, fold it into thirds until it's a small rectangle that can be slotted in alongside other items In addition to this nifty technique, it's also smart to ditch hefty toiletries like shampoo and body wash, as most hotels supply these complimentary. If you're heading overseas for an extended period, think about purchasing these upon arrival to spare suitcase space.

Flight attendant reveals that buying one chocolate bar could land you a free upgrade
A former flight attendant has revealed that there is one thing you can do at the boarding gate that will seriously increase your chances of getting a free upgrade A flight attendant has revealed that a simple Swiss chocolate bar could be your golden ticket to complimentary coffee and tea on board. The age-old enigma of securing a free upgrade on a flight remains as elusive as ever, with many travellers scratching their heads over the secret formula. TikTok's very own cabin crew member, @cierra_mistt, shared her insider knowledge, claiming there's a straightforward strategy that often pays off. "One of the easiest ways to get a free upgrade is literally just being nice to your gate agent and flight attendant," she divulged in one of her popular clips. But if kindness alone doesn't do the trick, she suggests sweetening the deal with some confectionery. She elaborated: "The miracles we can work when we are given some Starbucks or a pack of chocolate. Especially on those long days when we have back-to-back flights and we don't even have time to go get some food." Indeed, gifting treats such as sweets, chocolates, or even a takeaway coffee to the entire crew can significantly enhance your chances of receiving preferential treatment during your journey. While it may seem peculiar to approach the boarding gate laden with goodies, Cierra assures that this tactic is commonly employed by ex-cabin crew seeking upgrades on other airlines. Fellow flight attendant Miguel Muñoz concurred, expressing his fondness for passengers who bring gifts like "Toblerone or Cadbury Dairy Milk Buttons" from the airport shops. "I am automatically nicer to the person who had that nice gesture," he added, highlighting the power of a thoughtful offering. The cabin chief would always offer them free coffee and tea and if there are better seats available, we will move them!". Ex-air hostess Helena Afroughi confirmed to the Express that this remains one of the most effective methods for securing aircraft upgrades. She revealed: "What always works is when people bring some sweets to the crew, chocolates or whatever. And they make themselves known, don't just give it and run away. Usually, people do it as a thank you but I've seen it more with people that have family working as crew too so they appreciate the crew more." Helena detailed just how meaningful these thoughtful acts can be for cabin staff. "I had this very young kid once, who came and brought us little gifts from Bath and Body Works - a shop in the US - he bought us mini hand sanitisers... It was the cutest thing ever," she recalled. The crew member urged travellers not to hesitate in approaching the cabin team for a friendly chat.
